Rural industries code

Transcription

1 Rural industries code Application (1) This code applies to accepted development and assessable development identified as requiring assessment against the Rural industries code by the tables of assessment in Part 5 (Tables of assessment). (2) The acceptable outcomes in Table (Requirements for accepted development and performance outcomes and acceptable outcomes for assessable development) are requirements for applicable accepted development. (3) All provisions in this code are assessment benchmarks for applicable assessable development Purpose and overall outcomes (1) The purpose of the Rural industries code is to ensure rural industries are established in a manner that:- (a) (b) (c) supports local rural activities; conserves the productive characteristics of rural land; and protects environmental and landscape values and the amenity of surrounding premises. (2) The purpose of the Rural industries code will be achieved through the following overall outcomes:- (a) (b) rural industries are established in a manner that complements and supports local rural activities; and rural industries are located and designed so as not to adversely impact upon rural amenity, visual character and the environment Performance outcomes and acceptable outcomes Table Requirements for accepted development and performance outcomes and acceptable outcomes for assessable development Performance Outcomes Requirements for a Roadside Stall PO1 The roadside stall is limited in scale, appropriate to a rural setting and provides only for the sale of locally grown and manufactured goods. AO1.1 AO1.2 Produce sold at the roadside stall is limited to that which is grown or produced on the site or in the surrounding area. The roadside stall does not involve the sale of manufactured goods other than where manufactured on the site. AO1.3 the roadside stall:- (a) occupy a gross floor area of not more than 40m²; and (b) are temporary, mobile, or constructed of materials that can easily be dismantled following the cessation of the use. PO2 The roadside stall does not have an adverse impact on the safety and functioning of the road network. AO1.4 AO2.1 The roadside stall is ancillary to a rural use conducted on the same site. The roadside stall is located on a site adjoining a road other than a highway/motorway or arterial road identified on Figure 9.4.8A (2031 Functional Transport Hierarchy).

Requirements for a Rural Industry Relationship to Primary Rural Use PO4 The rural industry is appropriate to a rural setting and provides only for the storage, processing and packaging of locally grown produce. AO2.2 AO3 AO4.1 AO4.2 Location and Site Suitability PO5 The rural industry is located on a site which is of sufficient area to reasonably accommodate the use and limit the likelihood of adverse amenity impacts on surrounding properties.

Requirements for a Small Scale Transport Depot in a Rural Area Location and Site Suitability PO9 The transport depot is located on a site which is of sufficient area to reasonably accommodate the use and limit the likelihood of adverse amenity impacts on surrounding properties. AO9 The transport depot is located on a site with a minimum area of 4 hectares. Separation From Sensitive Land Uses and Setbacks to Site Boundaries PO10 The transport depot is setback from sensitive land uses, site boundaries and road frontages to protect rural amenity and the visual character of the local area. AO10.1 Use areas associated with the transport depot are set back a minimum of:- (a) 100 metres from any dwelling on a surrounding property; and (b) 250 metres from any community activity where people congregate (e.g. child care centre, community centre, educational establishment, hospital, place of worship). Traffic Impacts PO11 Traffic impacts are no greater than that which might reasonably be expected in a rural location. AO10.2 AO10.3 AO11.1 AO11.2 the transport depot are setback a minimum of 10 metres from all site boundaries, other than road frontages. the transport depot are setback at least:- (a) 40 metres from a State controlled road; and (b) 20 metres from any other type of road. The transport depot does not involve the use of a vehicle with a tare weight exceeding 7.5 tonnes. Loading or unloading activity is undertaken entirely within the site boundaries. Table Additional performance outcomes and acceptable outcomes for assessable development Performance Outcomes Additional Requirements for a Rural Industry Protection of Agricultural Land PO1 The rural industry is located such that it conserves the productive characteristics of Agricultural Land Classification Class A and Class B. AO1 The rural industry is not located on Agricultural Land Classification Class A or Class B under the State Planning Policy. Note Agricultural Land Classification Class A and Class B is identified under the State Planning Policy. Note a site specific agricultural land assessment may be used to demonstrate that although the subject site is identified as Agricultural Land Classification Class A or Class B under the State Planning Policy, it is in fact not Agricultural Land Classification Class A or Class B under the State Planning Policy.

4 Infrastructure and Services PO2 The rural industry is located on a site which has appropriate access to necessary infrastructure including:- (a) adequate vehicle access; (b) a reliable, good quality water supply; and (c) reticulated sewerage or on-site treatment and disposal facilities. If such an assessment confirms that that land is not Agricultural Land Classification Class A or Class B (and this is independently verified where necessary), then Performance Outcome PO1 will not be relevant to the development. AO2.1 AO2.2 The rural industry is located on a site which has sealed or fully formed gravel road access. Where reticulated water is not available, the rural industry is provided with a reliable water supply with capacity to store a minimum of two days supply. Environmental Management PO3 The rural industry incorporates waste disposal systems and practices which:- (a) ensure that off-site release of contaminants does not occur; (b) ensure no adverse impacts on surface or ground water resources; and (c) comply with relevant industry guidelines, codes of practice and standards applicable to a specific use. PO4 The rural industry use prevents or manages any discharges of stormwater runoff or wastewater from the site to any waterway, wetland, roadside gutter or stormwater drainage system such that:- (a) no unacceptable levels of sediment, nutrients, chemicals or other pollutants enter a waterway or wetland; and (b) the ecological and hydraulic processes of the waterway or wetland are not adversely affected. Traffic Generation PO5 Traffic generated by the rural industry on the surrounding road network does not result in unacceptable impacts on adjacent land and road users.
